With rising costs of business, the Payment of Wages (Tips and Gratuities) Act, and staff retention issues all at play in the hospitality industry, more employers are revisiting their tipping system. Cash payments are becoming less common across Ireland, which is leading to a rise in digital payment solutions. Tipping is no exception to this; a contactless alternative for tips and gratuities is commonplace in most hospitality businesses.
JustTip has a solution for every type of hospitality business- but which one is right for you? Read on to see which of our solutions is best for your business:
If you own a café:
If you own a café, our Fixed device may be the right choice for you. The device is designed to sit on your countertop, ideally beside your POS, and tips can be left in seconds with a phone or card. These devices are set to a fixed amount, such as €1, so that your customers can leave a tip in seconds easily and conveniently.
This may be the solution for you if:
- Your customers pay at the counter, as opposed to at their tables.
- You need a quick and simple solution for a busy environment.
- You want a custom design to fit your brand identity.
If you own a restaurant:
If you own a restaurant or operate table service, our Flex device may be the right choice for you. The flex is a hand-held, mobile device designed to be recharged and carried around, making it perfect for waiters. Customers can choose a percentage of a bill to leave as a tip, or enter a custom one. The flex can also collect service charges, making it ideal for restaurants.
This may be the solution for you if:
- Your business operates table service.
- You need the option to collect service charges.
- You want your customers to be able to leave a larger/custom tip.
If you own a hotel:
We appreciate that in a hotel, there are a lot of moving parts and different departments. Most hotels need a customised suite of solutions to make sure they cover all of their bases. For example, our flex devices may be perfect for your hotel bar or restaurant, and our fixed device can be left at reception or in a spa for quick and easy tips. For accommodation staff and cleaners, our qr codes can be left in the rooms to let customers leave a tip using their phone.
If you own a charity:
With cash transactions becoming less frequent, less people are carrying change around with them. This can be detrimental to charities who rely on a traditional coin bucket to collect donations. Our fixed machines can act as a digital donation box, allowing customers to tap their card or phone to leave a quick donation.
This may be the solution for you if:
- You need a cashless method of collecting donations.
- You would like donors to be able to leave a small, set amount such as 50c/€1 (this can be increased with a button).
- You want to reduce the time and hassle associated with counting and sorting change.
There is a solution for all businesses at JustTip, and we want to make sure we find the one that works best for you and your business. To get started, contact us at info@justtip.net today or chat to our team here.
